Find the secrets to your own creativity and discover your individual style in a fun, inspiring and creative environment.... and learn how to mosaic too. This is an artform that doesn't even require drawing or painting skill, just enthusiasm. It is also a great way for artists experienced in other mediums to explore something new and inspirational. Our broken dish style of mosaic is also known as "Pique Assiette", a French term literally meaning "stolen dish". This is NOT a packed one day mosaic workshop rushing you through a project where you throw together a design, glue it down and grout all in one flustering, tiring day. In fact, each student is encouraged to choose their own individual project, be it an art mirror or small furniture piece. Our classes supply lots of inspiration and ideas. |

| This is a much slower and quieter approach in very small mosaic classes of just one or two people. My emphasis will be to help you find the source of your own creativity. We believe that everyone has an intuitive artistic sense and we will help you to find your own individual style. Discover the secrets of inspiration in a nurturing, enjoyable atmosphere while creating a unique work of art. | ![]() |

First Class: Introduction to creativity, finding your project in the creative environment of the artists home and studio. Then Thrift Store Shopping for good stuff to break or include in your mosaic! Shop for all the ingredients to your first inspired mosaic. Learn what to look for, what will work. Youll never look at a dish the same way again. Way too much fun. Every one loves the Shopping Class! Big plus is that almost everything is recycled and guilt free. You'll suddenly see new uses for those old dishes, ornaments and bits and pieces you've saved at home. (Note: we will have a selection of tile available for you to purchase at cost for your project as well)
2nd class: Breaking Dishes 101. Who knew breaking dishes could be so much fun? Learn the art of gluing all those bits and pieces down with plenty of guidance from an artist to help you get the result you want. Third Class: Studio time. Time to finish gluing the bits and pieces you have artfully arranged plus tips and guidance on how to maintain your creative side and nurture your talent. Last Class: All about grout. You'll be grouting and finishing your piece. Then sit back and celebrate! You will enjoy the glow of accomplishment as you view your finished piece, the results of unleashing your creative side. |
